BBC Studios has this morning (28 November) unveiled the BBC Earth Experience – a new immersive journey through our seven continents, narrated by David Attenborough and coming to London in March 2023.
Working with Moon Eye Productions and Live Nation, the new attraction will showcase footage, including extended scenes to fully immerse the visitor, and music from the BBC Studios Natural History Unit television series Seven Worlds, One Planet, projected on multiple multi-angle screens using the very latest digital screen technology.
Visitors will take a majestic 360-degree audio visual journey as they explore iconic landscapes and connect with mesmerising animals on this epic adventure bringing environments to life.
From fireflies putting on a spectacular light show in North America, to snub nosed monkeys huddling together to stay warm in Asia, and hungry hamsters fighting to keep their food in Europe, visitors will get to experience our seven continents in all their glory, like never before.
The attraction – which will span 1608m2 – will set up home at the Daikin Centre, a purpose built and demountable venue in London’s Earl’s Court.
“We are delighted to partner with Moon Eye Productions and Live Nation to bring the BBC’s ground-breaking natural history content to this amazing live immersive London location for everyone to enjoy,” commented Mat Way, global director, live entertainment, gaming and interactive at BBC Studios.
Frederik van Alkemade, chief creative officer at Moon Eye Productions, continued: “At Moon Eye Productions our aim is to create new experiences that leave guests ‘moon-eyed’ in wonder. Utilising the best natural history series in the world, courtesy of BBC Studios, we knew we could create our first immersive event to achieve our goal.
“Working with the BBC Studios team to transform the content into a 360-degree audio visual spectacle and Sir David Attenborough to narrate has been a privilege and we are proud to present BBC Earth Experience.”
The BBC Earth Experience will open on 30 March 2023 and run through until 31 July 2023.
